4 Use on lawns and yards including the following grasses: Cool Season or Northern Lawns Warm Season or Southern Lawns Kentucky Bluegrass Bermudagrass,common and hybrid Perennial Ryegrass Centipedegrass Tall Fescue, fescues (Red or Fine St. Augustinegrass Leaf) Zoysiagrass Buffalograss Bahiagrass PESTS CONTROLLED Pest Indication of Damage to Lawn Adelgids Annual bluegrass Weevil Aphids Billbugs Bluegrass Weevils Chinch bug (suppression) Cutworms (suppression) Elm Leaf Beetle European Crane Fly Larvae Lacebugs Leafhoppers Leafminers Mealybugs Mole Crickets Sawfly Larvae Sod Webworm European Crane Fly Larvae often cause damage by feeding on grass roots and disrupting soil surface. Mole Crickets often cause extensive damage by tunneling through lawns. Some species also feed on roots. Tunneling uproots the grass so it easily dries out. Lawns turn yellow, become thin, weedy and can eventually die _HY_SysInsectSpray_16 oz FK_Master.indd 2

5 PESTS CONTROLLED (continued) Pest Indication of Damage to Lawn Thrips Whiteflies White Grubs (including larvae of Asiatic Garden Beetle, Black Turfgrass Ataenius, Chafers, Japanese Beetle, May or June Beetle, and Oriental Beetle) Application Instructions Treat for grubs from the beginning of May to the end of October, or when first noticed. Contact your State Agricultural Extension Service agents for additional recommendations for your area. RESTRICTIONS: Do not exceed one application of Hi-Yield Systemic Insect Spray per season for lawns. Hand-Operated Sprayers Including backpack, compression, knapsack or tank type sprayers and low pressure boom sprayers.

Use the higher rate for heavier infestations of insect pests. Gallons of Water Fluid ounces (fl. Oz.) of product White Grubs cause extensive damage to lawns by feeding on grass roots. Grass turns yellow, then brown and dies. Grubs chew off roots so that the grass is easily pulled up in pieces in your hands. You can roll it back like a carpet to reveal the grubs. If patches of dead grass appeared in your lawn late last summer, check for grubs.
